Package jmri.jmrix.pi

Class RaspberryPiSensor

All Implemented Interfaces:
Comparable<NamedBean>, PropertyChangeProvider, DigitalIO, NamedBean, Sensor

public class RaspberryPiSensor extends AbstractSensor
Sensor interface for RaspberryPi GPIO pins.

Uses Pi4J 3.x on real hardware, or the JMRI-internal GpioSimulator when in simulator mode.

Pin numbering: the numeric part of the system name is the BCM (Broadcom) GPIO number. For example, system name "PS4" addresses BCM GPIO 4.

  • Method Details

    • requestUpdateFromLayout

      public void requestUpdateFromLayout()
      Request an update on status by reading the current pin state.
    • setPullResistance

      Set the pull resistance.

      Note: Pi4J 3.x does not support changing pull resistance after a pin is provisioned. This call updates the cached value but has no effect on already-provisioned hardware pins.

      Specified by:
      setPullResistance in interface Sensor
      Overrides:
      setPullResistance in class AbstractSensor
      Parameters:
      r - the new PullResistance value
    • getPullResistance

      Get the pull resistance.
      Specified by:
      getPullResistance in interface Sensor
      Overrides:
      getPullResistance in class AbstractSensor
      Returns:
      the currently configured pull resistance
    • dispose

      public void dispose()
      Description copied from class: AbstractNamedBean
      Deactivate this object, so that it releases as many resources as possible and no longer effects others.

      For example, if this object has listeners, after a call to this method it should no longer notify those listeners. Any native or system-wide resources it maintains should be released, including threads, files, etc.

      It is an error to invoke any other methods on this object once dispose() has been called. Note, however, that there is no guarantee about behavior in that case.

      Afterwards, references to this object may still exist elsewhere, preventing its garbage collection. But it's formally dead, and shouldn't be keeping any other objects alive. Therefore, this method should null out any references to other objects that this NamedBean contained.

      Specified by:
      dispose in interface NamedBean
      Specified by:
      dispose in interface Sensor
      Overrides:
      dispose in class AbstractSensor
